Secrets

 * 1) In the room with the shotgun, go to the southwest end and use the small crates in the larger stack. This lowers the entire stack and reveals a door. The passage behind the door leads to armor bonuses and another door that leads to a chaingun and health bonuses. (sector 1189)
 * 2) At the central halls, make your way to the middle, then north and east. Before the next turn, lower a wall to the north to get to armor bonuses. (sector 1768)
 * 3) In the room at the north end, use the blue button on the norther terminal to lower a pipe to the southwest, which has five armor bonuses. (sector 1341)
 * 4) In the room with four columns, use the southwest terminal to lower the southwest pillar, which has health bonuses. (sector 1678)
 * 5) In the same room, head to the easternmost end and press a small green button. Head south afterwards and into a small area with health and armor bonuses. (sector 2188)
 * 6) Leave the room with four columns via the south door. Lower a wall to the east to get health and armor bonuses. (sector 2157)
 * 7) After pressing the "6" switch, return to the depot at the south end and lower the wall around the southwest lift. Lower it, ride it up, then go to the crates to the east to get shotgun shells, a health bonus, and an energy cell pack. (sector 2430)
 * 8) Make sure that the doors at the east side of the depot are up (using the switches on the small lift in the middle), then go back to Secret #7, jump north and northeast onto the crates, then southeast, opening the vent and accessing the southeast area. Maneuver across the crates to one to the north and open another vent. Open the next vent, get the super shotgun and box of shotgun shells, then take the north lift to get a BFG9000, an ammo clip, a medikit, and a megaarmor. (sector 1113)
 * 9) At the "1" switch, head to the lamp to the west and use it. Go to the depot and get the armor bonuses at the northwest end. (sector 1091)
 * 10) At the "3" switch, get on the left edge and head to the north. Look northeast and shoot the button, then head all the way south to get armor bonuses, rockets, and a medikit. (sector 1008)
 * 11) Open a wall to the west of Secret #10 to head outside to health bonuses. Head north and a switch will appear. Press it and return to the area where the "3" switch is to find more health bonuses and partial invisibility. (sector 1581)
 * 12) Head back away from the "3" switch and go all the way to the grating at the end of the sewer. Shoot the button behind the bars here, then head slightly west and south to a new passage. Press the switch and go past the lift to get a chainsaw. (sector 1804)
 * 13) In the area with the "5" switch, go to the south doorstep and look northeast through the fence. Shoot the button there, then head west of the "5" switch. In the compartment to the west (which will be open if you pressed the switch behind the blue door in this area), use the white light to be able to access the plasma gun. (sector 1962)
 * 14) In the southeast room accessible from the blue door, use the right terminal at the north end. Leave and open the east door, then down the steps to the east with shotgun shells, armor bonuses, and a medikit. (sector 1353)

Bugs
An energy cell (Thing 508) next to the plasma gun in the north-east has no flags set for any of the three difficulty classes, so it does not actually appear in the level.
